ArcelorMittal publishes its 2023 Integrated Annual Review - Seite 2

“Continuous investment in our operations is another factor that influences our ability to deliver against our purpose. We have a lot of exciting growth opportunities ahead of us, and this year we will see some major projects coming online.

“Nothing is possible without our people – the 150,000 employed directly in our operations and the additional contractors who join them for specific projects. We have to work purposefully to ensure that we continue to attract the best and brightest talent into our company. We continue to make good progress at embedding our people strategy that is founded on three pillars: developing leadership that inspires excellence; attracting and developing talent to thrive for the future; and engaging all our workforce through implementing our D&I roadmap. Underpinning all three is a culture that motivates and inspires people to make a difference, where they can grow both professionally and personally, and where they can develop new ideas and succeed.

“As this review makes clear, there is a great deal of activity underway as ArcelorMittal continues to evolve, adapt and progress to ensure future success.”

Commenting, Lakshmi Mittal, Executive Chairman, ArcelorMittal, said:

“Our Integrated Annual Review aims to provide our stakeholders with a clear understanding of how we manage our business, and how we seek to build and protect value in a sustainable and responsible way. We provide an overview of the company’s performance, against our broader strategic objectives and against our sustainability goals. We seek to highlight the most material issues to our stakeholders, and how we are addressing the risks and opportunities presented to us, both now and in the longer term. The review takes account of our focus on safety, our progress on decarbonisation, our people values, how we aim to work with our local communities, our engagement with our value chain, and our growing efforts to work sustainably within the natural environment.

This year we have continued to progress with developing and investing in the breakthrough technologies for our sector and with our decarbonisation programme, and with preparing for reporting against new sustainability legislations. We have also been advancing on our diversity and inclusion (D&I) roadmap, aimed at building mutual engagement, delivering a flow of new ideas, and increasing productivity to enable a high-performing organisation.”
